A plumbing emergency is any situation that could cause immediate damage to your property or pose a health risk. This includes burst pipes, major water leaks, complete loss of water supply, sewage backing up into your home, and gas-related boiler issues. Dripping taps, slow drains and minor leaks are usually not emergencies but should still be addressed promptly.

A dripping tap is not usually a plumbing emergency, but it should not be ignored. A tap dripping once per second wastes over 15,000 litres of water per year, adding roughly £30–£50 to your water bill. It can also cause limescale buildup and eventually damage the tap mechanism beyond simple repair. Book a plumber for a non-urgent appointment to replace the washer or cartridge.

Low water pressure in Chichester can be caused by a leak in your supply pipe, a partially closed stopcock, faulty pressure reducing valve, or a problem with the local mains supply. If your neighbours have normal pressure, the issue is likely within your property. A plumber can carry out a pressure test to identify the exact cause — typically costing £50 to £80 for the diagnosis.

Check that the plumber holds relevant trade qualifications such as NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Plumbing. If they are working on gas appliances, they must by law be Gas Safe registered — ask for their registration number and verify it on the Gas Safe website. Membership of trade bodies like the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE) is a further mark of competence.
